We review the imaginary time path integral approach to the quench dynamics of conformal field theories. We show how this technique can be applied to the determination of the time dependence of correlation functions and entanglement entropy for both global and local quenches. We also briefly review other quench protocols. We carefully discuss the limits of applicability of these results to realistic models of condensed matter and cold atoms.

  1. Resource-Theoretic Quantifiers of Weak and Strong Symmetry Breaking: Strong Entanglement Asymmetry and Beyond

    hep-th 2026-01 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A resource theory for strong symmetry breaking is formulated, with the variance of the conserved quantity characterizing its asymptotic manipulation for U(1) symmetry and enabling tracking of weak-to-strong conversion...

    cond-mat.stat-mech 2026-02 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A quenched chiral spin chain produces analog Hawking radiation with non-Planckian spectrum but Poissonian statistics, detectable by a weakly coupled qubit sensor that reveals the horizon-induced temperature.
